We define united K-theory for real C*-algebras, generalizing Bousfield's topological united K-theory. United K-theory incorporates three functors -- real K-theory, complex K-theory, and self-conjugate K-theory -- and the natural…
This is an expository account of the following result: we can construct a group by means of twisted Z_2-graded vectorial bundles which is isomorphic to K-theory twisted by any degree three integral cohomology class.
Twisted K-theory on a manifold X, with twisting in the 3rd integral cohomology, is dis- cussed in the case when X is a product of a circle T and a manifold M. The twist is assumed to be decomposable as a cup product of the basic integral…
This is the first in a series of papers investigating the relationship between the twisted equivariant K-theory of a compact Lie group G and the "Verlinde ring" of its loop group. In this paper we set up the foundations of twisted…
We present a version of twisted equivariant $K$-theory-$K$-twisted equivariant $K$-theory, and use Grothendieck differentials to compute the $K$ -twisted equivariant $K$-theory of simple simply connected Lie groups. We did the calculation…
We introduce a periodic form of the iterated algebraic K-theory of ku, the (connective) complex K-theory spectrum, as well as a natural twisting of this cohomology theory by higher gerbes. Furthermore, we prove a form of topological…
We introduce twisted K-theoretic Gromov-Witten invariants - in the frameworks of both "ordinary" and permutation-equivariant K-theoretic GW theory defined recently by Givental. We focus on the case when the twisting is given by the Euler…
For T an abelian compact Lie group, we give a description of T-equivariant K-theory with complex coefficients in terms of equivariant cohomology. In the appendix we give applications of this by extending results of Chang-Skjelbred and…
Recently, Diaconescu, Moore and Witten provided a nontrivial link between K-theory and M-theory, by deriving the partition function of the Ramond-Ramond fields of Type IIA string theory from an E8 gauge theory in eleven dimensions. We give…
Freed-Hopkins-Teleman expressed the Verlinde algebra as twisted equivariant K-theory. We study how to recover the full system (fusion algebra of defect lines), nimrep (cylindrical partition function), etc of modular invariant partition…
Kasparov $KK$-groups $KK(A,B)$ are represented as homotopy groups of the Pedersen-Weibel nonconnective algebraic $K$-theory spectrum of the additive category of Fredholm $(A,B)$-bimodules for $A$ and $B$, respectively, a separable and…
Freed, Hopkins and Teleman constructed an isomorphism between twisted equivariant K-theory of compact Lie group $G$ and the "Verlinde ring" of the loop group of $G$. We call this isomorphism FHT isomorphism. However, it does not hold…
We introduce a twisted version of $K$-theory with coefficients in a $C^*$-algebra $A$, where the twist is given by a new kind of gerbe, which we call Morita bundle gerbe. We use the description of twisted $K$-theory in the torsion case by…
Equivariant twisted K theory classes on compact Lie groups $G$ can be realized as families of Fredholm operators acting in a tensor product of a fermionic Fock space and a representation space of a central extension of the loop algebra $LG$…
We explore the relations of twisted K-theory to twisted and untwisted classical cohomology. We construct an Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence, and describe its differentials rationally as Massey products. We define the twisted Chern…
In joint work with M. Hopkins and C. Teleman we find a new description of the Verlinde algebra associated to a compact Lie group. In this expository account we describe twisted K-theory, prove the theorem for the group SU(2), and motivate…
Let A denote the C*algebra of bounded operators on L2(R) generated by: (i) all multiplications a(M) by functions a\in C[-\infty,+\infty], (ii) all multiplications by 2\pi-periodic continuous functions and (iii) all Fourier multipliers…
A determinant in algebraic $K$-theory is associated to any two almost commuting Fredholm operators. On the other hand, one can calculate a homologically defined invariant known as joint torsion. We answer in the affirmative a conjecture of…
We introduce the magnetic equivariant K-theory groups as the K-theory groups associated to magnetic groups and their respective magnetic equivariant complex bundles. We restrict the magnetic group to its subgroup of elements that act…
We introduce and study a $K$-theory of twisted bundles for associative algebras $A(\mathfrak g)$ of formal series with an infinite-Lie algebra coefficients over arbitrary compact topological spaces. Fibers of such bundles are given by…
